Chapter 216 218 Supply Point

Rong Xianxian didn't allow Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo to eat random things anymore. The original reason was of course that she was afraid that the children would eat the wrong things again. Of course, it was undeniable that with the precedent of the Purple Snow Dan Fruit, she was also somewhat looking forward to the unexpected harvest of Xiaoniaoaoao.

At the beginning, it was fine. Xuanxuan obediently handed over the spiritual fruits that the bird brought back. Later, for several consecutive times, the spiritual fruits and herbs that the bird brought back were all medicinal herbs. Rong Xianxian felt that it was a complete waste to let the children eat them raw, so she withheld the spiritual fruits and gave only one or two to the children each time.

Xuanxuan protested several times, but Rong Xianxian didn't take it seriously. Xuanxuan felt that she could not eat fruits freely like before, and was unhappy. One time, Xuanxuan suddenly found her favorite spiritual fruits in her backpack. It turned out that the little bird Aoao had hidden them secretly. No wonder it went out for an extra long time that time, just to pick more spiritual fruits for her.

Rong Xianxian thought the bird had gone out to play by itself and didn't find any fruit, so she didn't care. However, she didn't expect that the two of them would actually do something under her nose. Rong Xianxian felt angry and amused. After all, the bird was lucky enough to find a rare spiritual fruit like the Purple Snow Dan Fruit. Most of the time, the spiritual fruits brought back by the bird were ordinary spiritual fruits, which were used to make wine or prepare some ordinary pills. Rong Xianxian used to think that using them to prepare medicine would better exert their effects. It would be a waste to eat them raw. Besides, don't the dried fruits that they originally collected taste bad? Aren't the dried cranberries, kiwis, banana chips, and blackcurrant raisins that she found in the supermarket delicious?

Now that Rong Xianxian knows about Xuanxuan and Xiaoniao's little tricks, she can't help but reflect on her own actions. She didn't care about Xuanxuan's previous protests and dissatisfaction, thinking that the child was just upset and would be fine after a while. She didn't expect that there are policies from the top and countermeasures from the bottom, which led to the current situation of hiding. If Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo accidentally eat something again, it will be too late to regret it.

"Xuanxuan, you are still young. What if you eat the inedible fruit again? It will make your mother so worried! Look at how much pain Xiao Luo was in last time. Aren't you afraid?" Rong Xianxian said seriously.

"Aoao said it's edible, so it's edible. It can't be wrong." Xuanxuan said unconvinced while touching the bird's feathers.

The little bird chirped twice as if in response.

"Then why was Xiao Luo rolling on the ground in pain last time? Who was the one crying and calling for help from mommy?" Rong Xianxian said with a stern face.

"Uh... um..." Xuanxuan frowned, not knowing how to refute. The fruit last time was obviously delicious, and she ate it, and felt comfortable after eating it. She also knew why her brother felt so uncomfortable after eating it?

"Okay, you don't have to hide it from now on. Mom will just take a look to see if it is a fruit you can eat. Is that okay?" Rong Xianxian coaxed her patiently. She didn't expect Xuanxuan to have such a reaction. In the future, as long as the things are not too rare, she will just let them do what they want.

"Sister, please show the fruit to mom, and I will give it back to you." Xiao Luo pulled the corner of Xuanxuan's clothes and said.

"Mom, this is what Aoao found for me. I can share it with you, but you can't take it all away." Xuanxuan looked up at Rong Xianxian and said somewhat aggrievedly.

"I'll give it to you." Listen, how can a little kid have such a strong sense of property rights? He even negotiated with her. Whatever you eat, drink, and use, it was given to you by me, your own mother. Forget it. Looking at the child's aggrieved look, as if she was snatching food from the child, she felt a little embarrassed for some reason. Rong Xianxian wanted to say toughly, "It's just a few spiritual fruits. I promise I won't take yours in the future."

But when I saw the pink bag in Xuanxuan's hand open, a bunch of crystal clear light blue fruits appeared inside. Like crystal, they sparkled brightly under the sunlight. Under the transparent skin, you could see the light blue flesh, which looked like delicious jelly, clear, soft and elastic, and full of fragrance.

Rong Xianxian's eyes widened. This was the ice crystal fruit.

She instantly swallowed back what she wanted to say. It was impossible not to have this.

Rong Xianxian barely suppressed her excitement, forced herself to smile more naturally, and squatted down in front of Xuanxuan, "Xuanxuan, can you ask where I found this? Is it far from here?"

"Oh! Okay, Mom." Xuanxuan agreed and went to communicate with the bird.

"Mom, Aoao said it's in a very narrow and very deep place." Xuanxuan and the bird chatted for a while, then turned around and said to Rong Xianxian.

"What are the things around here?" Rong Xianxian asked.

"There are a lot of flowers and a lot of trees!" replied the bird translator Xuanxuan.

Rong Xianxian was stunned. She looked at the green trees and flowers everywhere. What was she thinking about? What kind of answer did she want to get by asking a child and a young bird to answer this question?

It is lunch time now. They originally planned to set off after lunch. In order to save time, they ate the rice balls prepared in the morning. Rong Xianxian has already eaten. Cui Lie and others are checking the vehicles and supplies. If there are no problems, they will set off immediately.

Rong Xianxian took out the map and looked at the distance between tonight's camping site and here. One hundred kilometers away from here, there is an officially established supply point. It was originally a small town, backed by a cliff, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and only one mountain road connected to the outside world. It was originally a good defensive place. Unfortunately, when the end of the world came, a monster that was very good at hiding landed here. Killing the monster could get treasures, even fur, blood and flesh. Conversely, human life essence was also a great tonic for the monster. The monster lurked in the dark, quietly reaping human lives day by day, and strengthening its own strength.

The monster was very insidious and cunning. It would first attack humans by surprise and then drag them away to eat. As communications were cut off after the apocalypse, many local residents went out to look for the cause, and no one noticed that so many people had disappeared without anyone noticing.

The residents who went out to find the cause were attacked by monsters, and only a few people escaped. Officials from the town government stepped forward to organize the reporting of those who had died outside. People then discovered that in addition to those who had died outside, more than a dozen people had disappeared in the five days after the apocalypse.

In fact, on the third day, a family member of a missing person went to the police station to report the case. However, the staff at the police station were busy looking for the reason for the loss of communication and did not pay any attention to it at all.

Someone was just found missing in this town, and a man-eating monster appeared on the only mountain road leading out of the town.
